Jared Bleznick opened, Alex Foxen three-bet, and David "ODB" Baker moved all in for less. Bleznick folded.
Foxen drew one and paired an eight. Baker laid down ten-high and drew two. The first card was a six, meaning he had to fade just a pair of tens to win the pot. Luck would not be on ODB's side, though, as he peeled a ten and was eliminated in 15th place for $3,572.
The two-table redraw is now underway.

Jared Bleznick opened to 9,000, and when action folded around to Marvin Karlins, he moved all in for 57,400. The player in the big blind folded, and Karlins, not noticing Bleznick's open, revealed his hand. David "ODB" Baker immediately jumped to the rescue, covering Karlins' holding.
Confused, Bleznick asked what was going on, and Baker informed him. Respectably, Bleznick stood up and turned his back so Karlins' hand could be covered. Bleznick sat back down, and after getting a count, called.
Both players stood pat, and Karlins flipped over his ten-eight low once more. Bleznick tabled a nine-eight low, ending Karlins' run in 17th place for $3,572.
